After I was Exiled, I Became a Noble Minister

Mu Wanqing was also quite shocked, "Are you right? Is it the palace of the Prince of Wei? Not the palace of the Prince of Jin?"

In her judgment, King Jin is most likely to revolt, and she has been staring at it.

However, it is actually the palace of the King of Wei.

Mu Wanqing took over the letter, and the words were sharp and righteous.

The emperor scolded the emperor for being ruthless and ruthless, and even did not let go of the queen mother who had been very kind to him. She also said that the queen mother died tragically.

Son of man? Mu Wanqing was a little dazed, and Du Shuai's voice came from her ear, "The Queen Mother raised King Wei for several years."

Mu Wanqing suddenly realized that the queen mother can still be used as a tool when she dies.

"Hehe, it's obviously a wolf's ambition, and he pretends to be a dutiful son. It's not disgusting."

There was a buzz on and off the stage, and there was a constant discussion.

The foreign war is not over, why are you fighting in the nest? Isn't this a sign of ruin?

A student said weakly, "Du Shuai, King Wei will not succeed, right?"

The scene was quiet, and all eyes were looking over.

Du Shuai said decisively, "Yes, such an unfaithful and unrighteous dog thief can't do anything."

However, Mu Wanqing was not so optimistic, her brows furrowed.

Du Shuai sighed silently, "County Lord, sit down and have a cup of tea."

"Okay." Mu Wanqing made an inviting gesture and invited Du Shuai to her office.

Lidong brought tea and waited for a while before quietly exiting, closing the door smoothly and staying outside.

Du Shuai took a sip of tea, bitterness in his mouth, "What you said has come true."

She said there would be a civil war, no, that's right.

Mu Wanqing was silent, what are my words? Obviously he thought so too.

"It's later than I thought, why did they choose this time to attack? I don't know if it was a hasty attack, or a long-planned attack?"

It stands to reason that if you want to rebel, you are not just talking about it. You have to recruit troops and raise weapons.

Du Shuai's hand can't stretch out that long, so he can only guess, "Maybe the war is about to end, and the result they want has not been achieved. They are in a hurry."

The war in the south has ended, and the firepower is concentrated on the Xiliang side, and the battle is stalemate.

Mu Wanqing snorted coldly, "Collaborate with foreign countries, lead enemy troops to enter the customs, drive all the way to the capital, take the opportunity to get rid of the emperor, they can stand up to gain reputation, accumulate people's hearts, and establish a The glorious people who can turn the tide, save the people from fire and water, and take the throne logically, this is their idea. Unfortunately, the court is not as weak as they think."

She hates traitors the most.

The struggle for imperial power is nothing more than this, but the red line between foreign countries is a principle and cannot be touched.

Du Shuai's face is sinking, in order to seize the world, he will do whatever he can and betray the interests of Da Qi, how can such a person deserve to sit on that high throne?

He was the first to disagree.

"How can the enemy stop?"

Mu Wanqing said in a cool tone, "Cut the land and pay indemnity, anyway, no matter how poor they are, they will not be poor, they will still be able to sing and dance, and if they go out, they will be able to have a great country, no loss."

Thinking about the past dynasties, there are not many such things.

"A group of scum, traitors." Du Shuai couldn't help scolding, "Aren't they afraid of bringing wolves into the house and becoming sinners of the Da Qi Dynasty?"

Mu Wanqing sneered, if they had a bottom line, Daqi would not be in the air.

The soldiers were bloody, defending their country, and those dragons and phoenixes only thought about how to make money.

Du handsomely clutched his chest, gasping for breath.

Mu Wanqing was taken aback, for fear that he would fall here, she couldn't speak clearly.

She hurriedly poured a cup of tea and handed it to him, "Don't be angry, it's not worth it, now we still think about how to protect ourselves and how to protect the people of Xiliang."

As the highest officials of Xiliang, she and Du Shuai have the responsibility to protect the people of Xiliang.

In their position, they must fulfill their responsibilities.

Du Shuai did not take the tea, but took out a pill and swallowed it. After a while, his face gradually improved.

"What do you think?"

Mu Wanqing secretly sighed in relief, Mu Shuai's physical condition was worse than expected, "This is just the beginning, I bet one egg, Jin Wangfu will soon follow ."

Du Shuai wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his face pale, "You don't like Jin Wangfu?"

Mu Wanqing thought of Mu Jinyao's choice, the reborn person chose the Prince of Jin, what did it mean?

Speaking of which, Mu Jinyao disappeared, what happened?

"I have met the Prince of Jin. He seems to be gentle and elegant, but in fact, he is ruthless and ambitious."

Du Shuai has nothing to do with the Prince of Jin, and has no impression, "The emperor is wise and martial, and will not let those people succeed."

Mu Wanqing sighed softly, "The emperor is a wise man, but his luck is not very good, it's hard." Being an emperor is not a good job.

There are famines, earthquakes, locust plagues, droughts everywhere, the court is busy with disaster relief every day, the treasury is empty, the people's hearts are floating, and people are used to make trouble.

There is no way to pass this day.

Du Shuai's expression changed, he looked at the door subconsciously, "Don't talk nonsense."

Mu Wanqing pursed her lips, "I want to show my loyalty to the emperor, and send 20,000 troops each in Yuyuguan and Yicheng, close the city gate if necessary, and cut off all external pass."

Yuyuguan and Yicheng are the two barriers between Xiliang and the outside world.

Du Shuai is the head coach of the first army, and he is a hundred times stronger than her in this regard.

"Yes."

Du Shuai pondered for a while, "Okay, who do you want to tune in?"

This is just to show respect for Mu Wanqing, not really asking her to make an idea.

Mu Wanqing is not stupid, her tone is casual, "You are an expert in this regard, you can make up your mind."

They have long agreed that she is in charge of administration, but not involved in military affairs.

Du Shuai has already thought about the candidates, "Then let Jiang Tongzhi be stationed at Yuyuguan, and Zhou Siyuan be stationed at Yicheng."

Mu Wanqing is indispensable, "Can't it end on Du Shaoxuan's side? This war has dragged on for too long."

The daily supply of food and grass is a huge expense, and she can't afford it no matter how rich she is.

Chao Ting is too busy to take care of itself, and can't take care of the borders at all.

Although Du Shuai was recovering from his injuries in the rear, he knew the battle situation on the front very well.

Mu Wanqing frowned slightly, "It won't take a few years, will it? Burning money every day will make you poor, why don't you sit down and talk to see if we can live together peacefully and make money together? Is it not good?"

It was the common people and the soldiers at the bottom who suffered the most.

Du Shuai also didn't want to fight, "The two countries have long been willing to annex me, so why not miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"

Mu Wanqing rubbed her eyebrows. Fortunately, she arranged everything early and vigorously promoted industrial commerce. The listing of cotton attracted businessmen from all over the country to invest, and the funds were abundant.

We just harvested another wave of wheat, but the yield is not high, so we have to find a way to increase the yield.

No, you still have to hoard a lot of food and grass, the more the better, contact the merchants.

Suddenly, Du Shuai's voice came from my ear, "Thank you, county magistrate."

Mu Wanqing was stunned, she heard right, "Huh?"

Du Shuai's expression was sincere and serious, "If you hadn't planned for a rainy day, knew the righteousness, and sent the hoarded food and grass to the army, I'm afraid it would have been impossible to keep it."

No matter how strong your troops are, if you don’t have food, you will starve to death.

Those people calculated everything, but missed one person, that is Mu Wanqing.

Mu Wanqing has a long-term vision and a very strong ability, and she can only turn the situation around.

She was originally exiled to the border, but she became the guardian of the Western Liang by accident.

No one expected this.

Mu Wanqing showed a bright smile, "I also think I am great, and the court should give me a big reward."

Du Shuai couldn't help laughing, she was smart but not conceited, and she was very likable.

"You don't have any ideas?"

Mu Wanqing was stunned for a moment, what do you mean? But looking at his meaningful expression, his heart moved, "You mean that supreme position."

She said it very directly, "The height is very cold, the higher you stand, the greater the responsibility on your body, and I support the entire empire by myself, I don't want to wear such a heavy weight on myself. shackles."

To tell the truth, disasters are frequent, internal and external difficulties, the emperor is worried, sleep and sleep are difficult, life is difficult, and she is not at ease yet.

"Besides, the emperor and the prince are not bad to me today, and they are all rewarded. I quite approve of them."

The implication is that if it's not good for her, she will try to counter it.

Du Shuai:…

I knew she was a very rebellious person. She was a daughter, but she dared to wrestle with court officials and do things that ordinary people dare not do.

But so... deviant, it was still greatly impacted.

Sure enough, not long after, Jin Wangfu announced its support for Wei Wangfu to rise together.

The Prince of Jin also stood up and testified, saying that he broke the secret of the emperor poisoning the queen mother, so he was hunted and killed, if it were not for his life, he would not be able to return to the fief.

The so-called evidence, the Queen Mother's handwritten letter.

The queen mother said in the letter that the king of Jin was her parent and son.

Why did the emperor do this? It is to coerce the Queen Mother to help him ascend to the throne.

It sounds well-founded, and the reason is self-consistent.

With such a commotion, the world shook.

Chao Ting denied everything, and bluntly said that it was all made up, just to make the rebels famous.

At the same time, the court sent troops to suppress and fought fiercely with the rebels.

During this period, several refugee teams rushed into the city to kill officials and occupied the city to declare an uprising.

For a time, the situation was chaotic and everyone was in danger.

Only the Xiliang area is not affected, and it is a world of its own.

The other people who were scared didn't dare to attack Yuyuguan again.

Mu Wanqing didn't dare to slack off, she was busy hoarding food, busy with city affairs, and busy picking up leaks.

There is no war in Xiliang, which attracts many refugees who yearn for stability.

Batches of refugees came from all directions, and the government was busy screening and resettling.
